How to Pack for a Weekend Getaway
Most travelers aren’t content never taking a vacation or even slaving away all year to wait for their annual trip. In fact, aside from the usual two weeks, it’s hard to make it through day-to-day without getting away a few other times throughout the year. We tend to take a few days here and there a couple times a year. You might not think you have the funds to do it, but if you step back and take a look at your travel style you can find ways you can cut corners, meaning you’ll need a smalle...

Lots of people take vacations to indulge in local wine, but what about beer? Have you ever heard of someone traveling specifically to sample local brews? I haven't, though oddly I know plenty of people who are crazy about beers and ales and love to grab a pint with their meals. If this sounds like an appealing way to plan your next vacat...

Happy Friday! Can you believe
June is almost over? It seems like it was just June 1st and now it’s the 21st. How’d
that happen? Maybe I’ve been having
so much fun planning my trip to Vegas that the time just slipped by. Somehow, I
don’t think that’s all of it, but that just means it’s time for me to show you
the fun stuff I found over the last few weeks.
Have you ever bought luggage at
the airport? Seems a bit...

Gevalia: A Coffee to Travel With
We are coffee drinkers. At home, that's pretty easy to deal with, because we have our Keurig* brewer in the kitchen and all-day coffee at work. When we travel, you don't have too many options, especially if you're trying to stay on a budget. Going to the coffee shop every morning is not an option if you want to save money. Most hotels and vacation rentals have a coffee machine, but the blend they supply you with is some of the cheapest coffee available. It can get you through, but it's de...

Review & Giveaway: Travelon Compact Hanging Toiletry Kit
If you have a few minutes to spare, don't forget about my reader survey that is still open. I really want to know what you like and don't like about Shereen Travels Cheap!
So, I don’t know about you, but when I travel, I like to have all my toiletries together and organized. I am not one to just toss a bunch of stuff in a bag and assume it’s everything I need. I have a list of every necessity and then add a few non-essentials to make me feel pretty. At the end of this month we are going t...

Review: Snugg iPad Mini Case
So, what do you do when you go
on a trip and want to take along your iPad mini? If you’re like me, the first thing you
do when you get a new electronic gadget that seems fairly fragile is get
a case for it. TheSnugg.com contacted me
and asked if I would like to review their popular cases. How could I
refuse? For a few minutes I contemplated calling everyone I knew to see if they
had a more recently produced iPad that I could borrow for a day to review one
of their awesome headrest cases for...

Getting Personal with Alpacas
Let's get to know each other! YOU go! Please take a few minutes to do my reader survey -
please and thank you.
When we travel, we always look for the free things to do at our destination. There are cool things to do everywhere that cost little to no money and we practice finding such things by doing them in our own city. I subscribe to a ton of email lists, one of which is LocalHarvest.org that will tell you all the cool farm-related activities happening near you. Normally this inc...

Who's Going Where This Summer?
I'd like to get to know you better - I would love if you took the time to do my reader survey!
Summer is coming and a majority of American's will be traveling. Are you among them? We'll be taking our full vacation in the fall, but like many others, we will be taking a trip this summer as well. I DO think you can get away with spending less per person than shown, but this infographic will show you the hotspots this year. Either you want to join the throngs of travelers or avoid the top 1...
